1st Censorship in Film (Banned): The Dreyfus Affair (aka L'Affaire Dreyfus) is a multi-film narrative by Georges Méliès regarding the controversial political scandal surrounding Captain Alfred Dreyfus, convicted of Treason in 1894 France. After Emile Zola published his infamous letter, "J'Accuse", which accused the government of anti-Semitism and unlawful jailing, Dreyfus was eventually re-tried. In 1906, he was exonerated and reinstated as a major in the French Army. This film, produced in the midst of the scandal, would become the 1st censored movie as it was banned in France.

梅里爱从魔术转行电影后的最早期作品，站在19世纪末法国最轰动的冤案之上拍摄，将事件由新出现的电影来展现，的确难能可贵。闪电、大风、大浪的设定也为将来设下了铺垫。 这是电影史上第一部超过20个场面的长片，也是电影史上第一部政治电影。
看不懂法文字幕。梅里爱坚持不用外景，中间一幕混乱人群冲到镜头前的感觉不错。室外转场？忘了。
影史上首部政治电影
13分钟？我看的版本怎么就1分钟左右？
Star Films 206，本片改编自真实事件，是影史上首部政治电影。但我没看出来。
首部政治电影就遭遇了政治审查╮(╯▽╰)╭
政治电影，没有字幕，没有背景解释，显得表义不明。少了梅里爱特色的特效，不过布景依然精致，多片段多场串联而成。
小场景
影史上首部政治电影，又短又默讲不清。
